Twisted Fiber Art, Inc.

Yarn:  Arial.  
Arial is a fine fingering weight yarn with two light, airy plies.  It knits into a thin, soft and cohesive fabric that feels good on feet in both summer and winter.  The yardage of this yarn makes knitting socks for large feet, intricate pattern stitching or knee-highs feasible with one 100 gram skein.  Knit tight for socks, getting the correct gauge is key!  Also a good bet for lacey scarves and shawls (it’s a decent substitution for lace weight).

And I have it on good authority that this yarn makes a wonderful crochet fabric and is an ideal choice for crochet socks (one skein is an ample amount even for large socks)!

Angst. Reddish browns and shades of purple combine with piercing blues. The name came from my son who is now a middle schooler. The knit sample is pictured to show in general how the colors interact and move as you knit. The yarn may be different but the size of the stripes will be similar. Keep in mind that each skein is unique and will knit in its own beautiful way.

Skein Design: Organic Stripe. When knit this yarn will stripe organically, blending from one color to another without the abrupt changes and predictable repeats found on machine printed yarns. The stripes vary throughout so shaping will not interfere with the look of your knit garment.
